Hi Ben,
Robin's diagram shows it correctly, the PBG diagram is just a little awkward with the way the wires overlap. The brown 'hot' wire in the PBG diagram connects from the 'tip' lug of the jack to the middle lug (only) of the volume pot, and the green wire connects from the right lug (only) of the volume pot to the left lug on the tone pot. Also, the left lug on the volume pot is connected/soldered to the pot casing as it needs to connect to ground. The right lug of the tone pot should not have a connection. The capacitor is connected from the middle lug of the tone pot to the pot casing. Make sure the legs of the cap don't short against anything else once it is in place (you can slide some plastic sleeving from a stripped wire onto the legs before you solder it if you're worried).
Note: the left/right lugs I'm referring to is based on how they are drawn in the PBG diagram I posted.
cheers for the clarification, yeah i just couldnt quite tell on the diagram, wanted to check. I had already put shielding on the cap leg as well because i too was worried about it shorting!
